3 Agenda 1. Union law Textmasterformate durch Klicken bearbeiten 1.1 VAT Zweite Ebene Dritte Ebene 1.2 The Court Vierte Ebene 2. How to get there? 2.1 The Court 2.2 Reference for preliminary ruling 3
4 1. Union law 1.1 Textmasterformate VAT - Main sources durch of Union Klicken law bearbeiten VAT Zweite Directive Ebene 2006/112/EC (amended 2016/1045 of 27 June 2016) 13th Directive Dritte Ebene 86/562/EEC 8th Directive Vierte Ebene 79/1072/EEC (amended 2006/98/EC of 20 November 2006) VAT Regulation 282/2011 (amended 1042/2013 of 7 October 2013) 4
5 1. Union law 1.1 Textmasterformate VAT durch Klicken bearbeiten Direct Zweite application Ebene of VAT Directive? ECLI:EU:2006:374 Dritte Ebene Feuerbestattungsverein Halle e.v. C-430/04 28 Secondly, Vierte it is Ebene settled case-law that unconditional and sufficiently precise provisions of a directive may, in the absence of implementing measures adopted within the prescribed period, be relied on by private individuals against any national provision which is incompatible with the directive or in so far as they define rights which individuals are able to assert against the State (see, in particular, Case 8/81 Becker [1982] ECR 53, paragraph 25, and Joined Cases C-465/00, C-138/01 and C-139/01 Österreichischer Rundfunk and Others [2003] ECR I-4989, paragraph 98). 5
6 1. Union law 1.1 Textmasterformate VAT durch Klicken bearbeiten Direct Zweite application Ebene of VAT Directive? ECLI:EU:2006:374 Dritte Ebene Feuerbestattungsverein Halle e.v. C-430/04 The Court Vierte has already Ebene held that since the bodies and activities to which the rule of treatment as non-taxable persons applies is clearly defined by Article 4(5) of the Sixth Directive, that provision fulfils the criteria for direct effect. VAT Directive can be generally considered as directly applicable 6
7 1. Union law 1.1 Textmasterformate VAT durch Klicken bearbeiten However Zweite Ebene More than Dritte 200 Ebene options in VAT Directive ( Member States may ) E.g. Article 11 Vierte Ebene After consulting the advisory committee on value added tax (hereafter, the VAT Committee ), each Member State may regard as a single taxable person any persons established in the territory of that Member State who, while legally independent, are closely bound to one another by financial, economic and organisational links. A Member State exercising the option provided for in the first paragraph, may adopt any measures needed to prevent tax evasion or avoidance through the use of this provision. 7
8 1. Union law 1.1 Textmasterformate VAT durch Klicken bearbeiten ECLI:EU:2015:496 Zweite Ebene Larentia + Minerva C-108/14 Dritte Ebene In that regard, it should be noted that, whenever the provisions of a directive appear, so far as their subject-matter is concerned, to be unconditional and sufficiently precise, Vierte Ebene they may be relied upon before the national courts by individuals against the State where the latter has failed to implement the directive in domestic law by the end of the period prescribed or where it has failed to implement the directive correctly (see, inter alia, judgment in GMAC UK, C-589/12, EU:C:2014:2131, paragraph 29). [ ] That article is thus conditional inasmuch as it involves the application of national provisions determining the actual scope of such links. As a consequence, Article 4(4) of the Sixth Directive does not satisfy the conditions necessary for it to produce direct effect. 8
9 1. Union law 1.1 Textmasterformate VAT durch Klicken bearbeiten Roughly Zweite 800 Ebene cases on VAT since 1970 How one Dritte local Ebene court can make a difference 15 cases Vierte on VAT Ebene referred by Administrativen sad Varna (Bulgaria) E.g.

Where any such question is raised in a case pending before a court or tribunal of a Member State against whose decisions there is no judicial remedy under national law, that court or tribunal shall bring the matter before the Court. If such a question is raised in a case pending before a court or tribunal of a Member State with regard to a person in custody, the Court of Justice of the European Union shall act with the minimum of delay. 18

Such is the case especially when the question raised is materially identical with a question which has already been the subject of a preliminary ruling in a similar case or where previous decisions of the Court have already dealt with the point of law in question, irrespective of the nature of the proceedings which led to those decisions, even though the questions at issue are not strictly identical. 19
